Abraham’s Faith and Obedience, Pt. 2
Abraham is the only person in the Bible who is called a friend of God (James 2:23), perhaps the highest honor anyone can receive. Although he was not perfect in his walk with God, scripture records him as God’s friend and his “friend forever” (2 Chr. 20:7).
Abraham is the father of faith and the faithful. Faith is exemplified throughout his life. Even when Abraham was weak in faith, God saw him as a person of faith.
Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as “the substance of things hope for, the evidence of things not seen.” Faith, therefore, is a firm conviction concerning things unseen and a confident expectation of future fulfillment. Faith trusts God for everything, while hope looks toward the future and trusts God for it.
